"Soft Money" radio episode

An audio recording by Oregon Congressman Les AuCoin on a bill in progress to ban soft money raising and spending. Soft money, known as non-federal money, is money that federal candidates and officeholders pass around for “party activities." AuCoin lists the ways soft money has been used and describes how Americans want to ban the use of soft money. This is one episode from AuCoin's biweekly radio show on Jefferson Public Radio (JPR), which ran after he had retired from office. The majority of episodes feature his commentary on current political events, often focusing on issues important to southern Oregon where JPR is based. This episode aired around 2002.
